The main reason I love park weddings is for their tangible intimacy, which is no more apparent than in Stephanie and Mikael’s wedding photographed by Therese Winberg Photography. Not only is Stephanie’s vintage gown and faux fur wrap a total winner, but how wonderful is her mermaid braid updo?

From the bride, Stephanie: We knew we wanted a fall wedding. We also wanted the day to have a vintage feel, while also being homemade and relaxed.

Any advice for couples planning their weddings now? Start on time. Surround yourself with people you trust when you plan. Try thinking creatively and come up with your own solutions. Have fun!

From the photographer, Therese of Therese Winberg Photography: Stephanie and Mikael got married in a local park in Stockholm with some of their closest friends and families. Stephanie was glowing in her vintage dress, amazing hair done by her sister and with their first baby soon coming you could really feel the love all day. After the ceremony we went to Stephanie’s family home where a relaxed BBQ dinner with traditional games was held in the garage.
